I love the books and never expect a TV show or movie to be as good.
The show entertained me. I liked the way they did the change from human to wolf and I liked the actors. All of them. While they may not be my idea of the character, again, I don't expect a TV or move to meet my expectation of what I think Clay or Jeremy or any of the others might look like.
It's too bad they didn't do more of the flash backs during the first show because I think people who don't know the history may not get some of the relationships, but I'll still be watching all of them and I am pretty sure I'll enjoy it, along with some of my friends.
